[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
ODIN works even if you can't boot into Recovery or ROM. It is supported at the bootloader level.

ODIN only increments the flash counter and triggers the yellow triangle if you flash an unsigned kernel.

If you are flashing modems or ROMs it doesn't trigger the yellow triangle or increment the flash count. If you are flashing back to stock it doesn't trigger the yellow triangle or increment the flash count.

ODIN is quite useful when your phone is otherwise crippled. It is also convenient to flash many different components at once.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Will of fire:
Try formatting your sd cards. Reset the whole phone

Thank u so much for Everything.. My phone is fully stock.. Im so happy now.. Only one thing.. How. Do i delete superuser and mobile odin... Thats all i need
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AVAH0LIC:
Download es file explorer... Phone>system>apps make sure you go Inot settings and have mount and read \write checked. Then delete the apps you don't want. That's all i did and they didn't notice anything :) congrats i know it feels good haha

Then you Samsung task killer/market to uninstall es file explorer

Oh also before i deleted everything just to be safe i installed root checker from the market... That way in case they said your phone is rooted for any reason you'd have somethin to argue with them by re downloading it in the store and showing them that message. Doesn't really prove anything but just a leg to stand on i suppose.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geomatiq:
Ok.. So i downloaded file explorer but wen i open it i cant find phone!? And wen u say go into settings that mean go into settings of file explorer or settinga of my phone?

Anyone having problems with their CWR sticking? I have to reflash every time before i reboot or i get the sad android w/ his red triangle :( I have LTE ver. on stock android 4.02
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
Did you try renaming system/recovery-from-boot.p?

Edit: didn't work for me either. If i press keys from the sad Android i reboot into safe mode and then reboot from rom into odin mode.

I'm not all that familiar with cwm, my last device used amon-ra recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TaFFeR:
I believe if you have a stock ROM, CWM won't stick because the stock ROM will "fix" the recovery partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Not if you delete the "recovery-from-boot.p" file. Should skip right past that.

I had this same thing happen after I first unlocked/rooted, but then I deleted the file, re-install CWM through Rom Manager, and it works perfectly now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
Yup, same here. I used the toolkit, though. Basically, flashed CWM, deleted the recovery-from-boot.p file, then flashed CWM again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xXJay_RXx:
I had this very issue when I first rooted. What I did was I made sure I had a ROM (I used Revolution at the time) and once I flashed Clockwork Mod thru Fastboot, I flashed the ROM and it made it stick for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TaFFeR:
Oh, good to know then. Thanks!

Here is a newbie from India.I own i9100.It had XWKF3(2.3.3) original kernel.I rooted it but soon I updated my firmware through kies to 2.3.6-XWKL1.I had taken back up of 2.3.3 only.

I was using ROM toolbox to change my status bar,when I rebooted,only to see yellow exclamation mark..phone didn't start.

So through CWM I restored my old 2.3.3 version.Now when I connect my pgone again to Kies for upgradation to 2.3.6,it says "Your device does not support firmware upgrade via Kies"

Current firmware-i9100XWKF3/i9100ODDKF3/i9100XWKL1/i9100XWKF3

I would suggest forgetting upgrading through Kies and using Odin. Kies is at best unreliable anyways.

[HTC Sensation] shafez:
Dear all

As I was flashing the ICS Firmware file I changed my mind and pulled the sd-card out and instead of pushing the Vol Down to cancel I pushed the Vol up.

The phone then started to update without the SD-Card in, I suppose it was erasing everything and now the phone is dead.

No charging light, Nothing. It is not detected by the PC what ever I do.

Is there any possible way to re-flash the bootloader again?

Please Help, my phone is out of warranty.

Any help is appreciated.

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
What you did was a very foolish thing, never flash firmware if you are unsure or even if you are, never ever pull sd card or battery out once it has started.

The only thing I can think of is try flashing an RUU. if not, u need to take it to a service center
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Does adb devices give you anything ?

I know it is a foolish thing to do and no it is not detected by ADB or the USB port.

Well, since adb won't see it, the ruu wont either. Congrats, its a brick :D Just call HTC and tell them you were installing an ota update when it died... You might be lucky and have it repaired
[HTC Sensation] tropical cactus:
Don't know what possessed you to pull out the sd card when you could have just pressed down button. If it's completely bricked, chances are HTC will replace since they can't access anything to check your history.
[HTC Sensation] shafez:
They will repair it for sure as it is not warranty covered and I will pay for it , But I wonder how much it will cost and which part they will change.

The phone is out of warranty. So they will likely change the main board if they can't flash a new boot loader.

Usually means it can only be repaired using special software not available to us. Always know 100% what you're doing when you do low-level flashes and never, ever change your mind about anything mid-flash.

HTC can flash it, but depending on how you explain the situation to them, it might cost some change.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devcager:
Hey,

I have a simple question. I want to save my battery. I would like to know how "2G/3G" feature works. A lot of apps and customization provides this setting. How does it work?

I want to switch to 3G only when I use internet actively BUT for pushing notifications and background updates + these cases when screen is off to use just 2G. Is there any other possibility except some Tasker, Locale or AutomateIt tasks?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saneless:
I think the battery you would save here would be minimal or none at all as the phones radio will still be receiving signal. As with any task killer they tend to eat up the battery they save. If you want to double your battery life look at getting a power skin case, they run about 45 dollars but my phone last about 12 hours with it. It does make your phone pretty hefty though..

Hi all and Happy new year 2012 !!!! :)

Just a little question about the Razorclaw root method.

I used Razorclaw to root my transformer.

Actually I can't update my firmware because if I update it I loose the root as explained in the Post:

"How to Root the ASUS Transformer."

I Found the Post named:

"TUT] Get the 21 OTA Update and keep ROOT"

this Post talk about the application OTA Rootkeeper. Apparently you can use it to "freeze" the root files and update your firmware. I f you loose the root after reboot open Voodo OTA RootKeeper and you can restore the root.

I need to know if someone, who used Razorclaw method, tried to use it to update the transformer firmware 8.6.5.19 by 8.6.5.21 with success ?

In advance...Thank you for your help.....

And thank all the guys who works to help us in the section EeePad Transformer Android Development.

I used razorclaw on TF 8.6.5.19. Used OTA rootkeeper to backup root.

Then OTA update 8.6.5.21 and restores root with OTA Rootkeeper.

Flash the koush3 gapps if on ICS or the gb gapps in the cm7 Whistlestop thread. Flash gapps then wipe dalvik only then reboot.

If that fails then boot back to recovery wipe cache then dalvik flash the whole ROM then immediately flash gapps then wipe dalvik agaon before rebootin.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wtfmen:
Yesterday my mom's skyrocket wouldn't send SMS or make calls so she asked me to fix it. I was looking around in the network settings but I couldn't find anything wrong. Remembering my old samsung that would do something similar (or identical), I rebooted the phone. That fixed the problem and I thought it might have just been a one time thing.

Today it happened to my phone... Someone is supposed to wake me up through text message, but because of the same exact problem my mom's phone had, it didn't ring when I got a message or even receive the message (I woke up late).

So I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem, or if anybody could think of any solutions. I'm pretty sure more people will start to find this problem with their phones, but maybe it's just me and my mom.

I hope I didn't make the wrong decision by buying a samsung phone again.

Oh and I'm located in Dallas.

Anyone want to read about the glitch I had with my old phone? Hundreds of other people had the same problem.

Long story short:Skyrocket can't send or receive SMS or make calls until rebooted. Happened to 2 different skyrockets.*

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
There is a file on the nexus s and i believe the Gnex as well that will rewrite the stock recovery after a reboot. unless you change this file you have to flash the recovery every time you want to go into it. use a file manager and search for install-recovery i believe its install-recovery.sh and rename it to install-recovery.sh.bak ( or wtv ) may solve it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] threepio:
I just did a quick search in root explorer and found a file called "install-recovery.sh"

it should be in the root folder/etc/install-recovery.sh

and i just tried going into CWM and got the same thing as the OP. I am going to rename the "Install-recovery.sh" file like Goat_For_sale suggested, then reinstall CWM and see what happens after a few reboots.

Standby.

*final* edit

So here is what I did.

1.renamed "install-recovery.sh" to "install-recovery.sh.bak" (located in the "etc" folder of the root) I used root explorer. Make sure you mount as writeable or else you cant change the file name.

2. rebooted phone as normal. went into Rom Manager and reinstalled CWM.

3. turned phone off, and booted into recovery and boom! CWM came up nicely.

Glad I found this thread, or I would have been annoyed when I go to flash a rom tonight and couldnt figure out why I wasnt able to get into CWM.

Good luck OP.
